Asparagus….

Tender, grassy, and sweet, asparagus is a true marker of the triumphant arrival of spring. The stalks are at their best when freshly picked, in-season, and as local as possible since transportation and time are hard on the vegetable.

Here are 4 fun uses for fresh Asparagus:

Pickled asparagus salad

Asparagus fries with remoulade

Balsamic grilled asparagus with fresh tomato
